First of all, shame on you for blasting your son, who loves you, clearly hates to see you in pain, and was only trying to DEFEND you. I think you owe him an apology.
Secondly, you need to GET A GRIP. I'm sorry, but I don't know how to say it any more plainly. Your wife said she's done with you? Excuse me, but she's ALREADY made that decision (at least for the time being) by screwing around on you. So now you're going to let some sort of PROCLAMATION from her deter you from your course?
Sorry man, if that's all you got, then you're not ready for this. Just considering your occupation, I'm thinking you got much, much more to give here. Time to 'nad up -- Life dealt you a great big chit sandwich, and it's time to get cracking on how to deal with it, and not get blown off your path by the first 35mph wind that comes along. Time to show that 16 year old young man how to deal with adversity with strength and honor.
"Being defeated is often a temporary condition. Giving up is what makes it permanent."
